Regering sê gratis behuisingis nie meer bekostigbaar nieDie minister van menslike nedersettings indieWes-Kaap,BonginkosiMadikizelahet ver-lede week gesê die regering kan nie meer gra-tis behuising bekostig nie. Hy noem ook datgratis behuising nie heeltemal gesny gaan
word nie maar dat daar gekyk moet word naouderdomsgroepe van diegene wat huise ont-vang,asookhoe lankmenseopdiewaglyswas.Die Helderberg Gazette het gaan uitvind hoedie publiek hieroor voel.
Getruida Hobosch: As jy 20-jaar-oud is met drie ofvier kinders is jy klaar groot en het jy jou eie huis nodig.Hulle moet woonstelle bou sodat daar meer slaapka-mers kan wees. Hulle kan nie nee se vir die mensenie. Dis onsin wat hy praat en ek stem nie saam nie.
Bongeka Nogoduka: Ek stem nie saam met wat hysê nie. Waar gaan ek met my kinders heen?
Luke Hobosch: Ek dink as mense belasting betaalmoet hulle huise kry. Dit maak nie saak hoe oudjy is nie.
Thando Mafuna: Ek stem glad nie saam nie. Ek dinkons kan meer leiers van ons jeug verwag, wat betekenmeer verantwoordelike jong mense. Ons moet mekaarondersteun en motiveer as jeugdiges. Die feit dat so-veel mense nog sonder huise is, het direk te doenmet die moord en diefstal statistiek.
Sipho Ntantiso: Ek voel hulle moet hierdie hele be-huising ding herevalueer. Behuising was aan die be-gin bedoel vir mense wat tydens die apartheidseraswaar gekry het, maar ek dink nie daar was bespreekwaar om die lyn te trek nie. Mense verkoop hullehuise en dan speel hulle arm, dis nie reg nie.
Bazuka Soji: In my opinie, dink ek dis minderbevoor-regte mense word net meer afgedruk. Mense het geeninkomste nie so ek dink dit is die regering se verant-woordelikheid om huise te verskaf aan die wat ditnodig het. FOTO’S: TAMSYN JANTJIES

How to keep thosepesky pests at bayIt’s summer againand that means braa-is and lazy days. Butit is also time whenall those unwantedpests like flies andmosquitoes maketheir appearance.Here are a few tipsthat could help keepthese flying fiends ata bay.
) Citronella – Thisworks on both flies andmosquitoes.Youcanei-ther burn a citronellacandle or you can dabsome of the oil on yourexposed skin.
) Cloves – Flies donot like the smell ofcloves. You can keep 10– 15 cloves in a saucernear to where you areserving food. Alterna-tively, use clove oil tokeep them at bay.
) Herbs – Flies in-stinctively stay awayfrom certain herbs inyour garden. These in-clude elder, basil andmint. It is also a goodidea to plant theses in little pots and placethem around the house.
) Lavender oil – this is also has a dualuse for both flies and mosquitoes. Dabsome on your skin or on your bedding and
tablecloths.) Vodka – Yes
that’s right. Forsome unknown rea-son flies do not likethe smell of vodka.You can make Vod-ka bags and hangthem around yourentertainment areaor alternatively rubsome on your ex-posed skin, if youare comfortable do-ing that.
) Vinegar:Though this doesn’tsmell very nice, itworks. Pour a littleinto a saucer andplace it next to yourbed and it will wardoff all those greedymosquitoes.How to make
your own fly trap:You will need awide-mouthedglass jar, papercone and sugar wa-ter. Pour the sugarwater into the jar.
Cut 1 cm off the top of the paper coneand place it in the glass jar but don’t letit touch the water.The flies will be attracted to the sweet
scent and fly into the hole but they willnot be able to fly out again.
Make your own fly trap for your home.

Load shedding to hitCape Town this weekEskom has published a notice onits website, stating that loadshedding is planned nationallythis week.Eskom spokesperson Andrew
Etzinger said in a TV news inter-viewonSunday, that the countrywill see a “serious situation forthe next few days”.The cause is apparently a
cracked silo which collapsed andaffects coal supplies to all sixunits of the Majuba power sta-tion, one of Eskom’s largest coal-firedstations.Planneddowntimefor individualmunicipalitiescanbe found at www.eskom.co.za byclicking on the load-sheddinglink at the top of the website.Stage 1 load shedding allows
for up to 1 000 MWof the nationalload to be shed. Stage 2 allows forup to 2 000 MW of the nationalload to be shed. Stage 3 allows forup to 4 000 MW of the nationalload to be shed.Load shedding will be imple-
mented inmost instances in two-
hour blocks (with an additional30minutes forswitchingbetweenblocks). Those affected maytherefore be without electricityfor 2,5 hours at a time.
) The Eskom alert, releasedover the weekend, reads:“Thepowersystemisprojected
to be severely constrained thisweek due to the loss of 1 800 MWattheMajubapowerstation,asit-uation caused by damage to thecentral coal storage silo. A silo,which houses over 10 000 tons ofcoal, cracked on Saturday andcollapsed on Sunday, impactingcoal supplies toall sixunits at thepower station and resulting inthe power station operating at re-duced capacity of 1 300 MW.No injuries were reported.Teamsareonsiteandare in the
process of dispatching mobilecoal feeders to site.In the unlikely event that this
contingency is unsuccessful, itmay impact the full supply fromthe power station.”
